{{Use mdy dates|date=February 2016}}James "Jim" Lepowsky (born July 5, 1944 in New York City) is a professor of mathematics at Rutgers University, New Jersey. Previously he taught at Yale University. He received his Ph.D from M.I.T. in 1970 where his advisors were Bertram Kostant and Sigurdur Helgason. Lepowsky graduated from Stuyvesant High School in 1961,[1] 16 years after Kostant.[2] His current research is in the areas of infinite-dimensional Lie algebras and vertex algebras. He has written several books on vertex algebras and related topics. In 1988, in a joint work with Igor Frenkel and Arne Meurman, he constructed the monster vertex algebra (also known as the Moonshine module). His PhD students include Stefano Capparelli, Yi-Zhi Huang, Haisheng Li, Arne Meurman, and Antun Milas.[3]In 2012 he became a fellow of the American Mathematical Society.[4] Notes1. ^{{cite web |url=http://65.104.11.121/MathTeam.html#JLepowsky |title=Stuyvesant Math Team |accessdate=2007-10-31 |deadurl=yes |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20071001031823/http://65.104.11.121/MathTeam.html#JLepowsky |archivedate=October 1, 2007 |df=mdy-all }} 2. ^{{cite web |url=http://www-math.mit.edu/~kostant |title=Professor Kostant's Homepage |publisher=MIT Math Department |accessdate=2007-10-31}} 3. ^{{MathGenealogy|5945}} 4. ^List of Fellows of the American Mathematical Society, retrieved 2013-01-27.
